    Are we doing it again this year, Friday night? I don't remember how I got to my hotel last year so why should this year be any different!

    I'm thinking this year it might be better to do a 2-parter. Start at Taps and Dolls then move to the Pub across the street since T&D gets loud once it really gets rolling. Spent a lot of time last year drunk shouting with people :D

    This is my first (motorcycle-related) trip to Indy. I was only there once before, for the first F1 race, and had to stay a fair ways outside of town, so didn't see much.

    It would be really fun to meet some WERA board peeps in person. I've met a few at the track, but many times I'm not even aware of it. An actual gathering would be cool.

    I think we are staying within walking (or some semblance thereof after a few drinks) distance of that place.

    Post a few details as the time gets closer... :up:

    I got closer this year so I can walk the boss back to the hotel and then go back out without hiking all the way across downtown :D

    Most of the downtown stuff isn't cheap but the walking distance is really nice. Out by the airport isn't bad at all pricewise and isn't that far.

    I booked rooms at the Staybridge City Centre. With taxes and everthing king room runs about $150 a night. Its 5 minute walk to the bar, 15 from track, 20 from fairgrounds (Indy Mile). Last year it was clean and complimentary bfast. I was happy...... So was the boss!
